Hi-I've seen something on this subject, but can't find it again. How do you get PT boats from, say, San Francisco to Pearl?( Or any other long distance). I believe it has something to do with an AK transport Mission. I made an AK TF, hit activate PTs & got a PT TF. Fine, but how do I get the PTs onto the AK, or whatever is needed to transport them? BTW, is the same proceedure used for barges? Thanks, Hugh Browne

Put them in a TF with other ships that have large amounts of fuel ... they will refuel themselves as they go.

Works as described. I had PTs escort an AK from Manila to Soerabaja the long way around, and they refueled from the AK...

Course the best way is to load the AK with supplies at SF, sail it to wherever you want the PTs to be, then click "activate PTs"...
